Tikin

The village of Tikin, also known as Tiki, is one of the largest villages in the Republic of Ellos with a population of about 1500. Many prefer living in Valley Rock but because Tiki is nearer a river it creates a lot more trade. This makes Tikin more popular for merchants and craftsmen looking to sell goods.

Tikin has a large town square with lots of merchants usually. Colorful stands with beautiful wares for sell. Another interesting place is the Baylon crypt. Baylon was the founder of the Tikin and lived over 2000 years ago. His crypt is still in good condition thanks to the protection the village folk has given it. The crypt is located under the small south tower. In the crypt there is an old passage leading downwards but it leads to a dead end. Rumor has it that there is a big underground network connecting Tikin with the catacombs of Valley Rock that was used to safely transport goods and wares before the Golden Marauders offered their protection on the roads from monsters between the settlements. Rumor also has it that it can still be accessed from a secret passage under the Tiki Bridge and that there is a portal to the Plane of Shadows hiding down there. Other has it that a powerful lich is still down there but was trapped there by powerful wizards and that is why the underground tunnels were sealed of so no one could go down there and release the lich back into the world.
